ISC Sets the Record Straight on Its Strategic Review

REGINA, Saskatchewan, Sept. 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Information Services Corporation (TSX:ISC) (“ISC” or the “Company”) today addressed Plantro’s mischaracterizations regarding ISC’s ongoing Strategic Review.

Following feedback from our shareholders and other parties, the Company confirms the following:

• The Strategic Review was initiated by ISC’s Board of Directors with the support of the Company’s largest shareholder, Crown Investments Corporation of Saskatchewan.

• Plantro’s privately requisitioned special meeting of shareholders did not include any proposal or request for ISC to initiate a Strategic Review.

• The Strategic Review was not the result of any agreement with Plantro.

• Plantro’s assertion that its actions have led the Company to embark on a Strategic Review is inaccurate.
  
  

Notwithstanding Plantro’s mischaracterizations, the Company appreciates its support of the Strategic Review and for withdrawing the requisition for a special meeting of shareholders. This enables the Company to conduct a robust process and proceed without distraction.

The Company remains fully committed to its comprehensive and independent process aimed at enhancing shareholder value through disciplined growth, operational excellence, and potential portfolio optimization.

ISC cautions that there can be no assurance that the Strategic Review will result in a transaction or, if a transaction is undertaken, as to its terms, timing or completion.
